The background for the stay: We had to stay in Paris for the night between 28/05/2022 and 29/05/2022, otherwise the next leg of our journey would not have been possible. We were shocked to see how difficult it was to find a hotel in Paris and how expensive they were. (Only later we found out that the reason was the Champions League final between Real Madrid and Liverpool, which took place in Paris on 28/05/2022.) Therefore we ended up in an area much further from Central Paris than we would have liked. Having read some of the negative reviews, the hotel was a positive surprise. The people at the reception were friendly and professional. The young gentleman checked us in smoothly and efficiently, and the other young gentleman with whom we checked out the following morning was equally pleasant, he helped me with my luggage to get down the stairs from the lift to the reception. That is the kind of service you often do not get in more high end hotels. The room was small and basic (no kettle, no mini fridge) but it was spotlessly clean. It also had double-glazing which kept any noise from the street away efficiently. It had wooden floors which I found pleasant and hygienic. The big positive surprise was that the bathroom had bath. It was not a full size one but still very nice. There were 2 soaps and 2 shampoos in the bathroom. The towels were fluffy. There was even a balcony - big enough to stick your toes out! The negatives were: The walls were paper thin, you could everything from close by rooms. Luckily we did not have any neighbours partying all night - they came in, did their evening preparations and went to sleep - so we had a good night's sleep. There are lots of steps: The lift is situated between the floors, so you have 9 steps to your room. You also have 7 steps to get to the reception from the street , 11 steps from the reception to the lift. But the steps were not steep or spiral, which helped. There are useful services close by: A Carrefour was 1 minute away, a boulangerie 2 minutes away, we had dinner at the Italian restaurant Il Segreto 5 minutes away, which had very good food. A modest but much better hotel than we expected.
